Sidebar disappeared

[Guest]

Hi

I clicked on the X mark to quit the sidebar but it seems that I've lost the
sidebar for ever... lol.

I tried to reactivate that sidebar but it doesn't work. The sidebar is not
visible anymore.

I went to the process tab on the taskmanager and it seems that the sidebar
is launched but still not visible. So I removed that process and rebooted.
After rebooting I went to the taskmanager again and saw the sidebar not
launched. That's ok because I checkmarked it not to launche on startup. So I
activate the sidebar again by entering the control panel/windows sidebar and
it still does not launche. In the taskmanager the process is not activated
neighter.

How do I get my sidebar back visible please?

Kind regards.

By the way, VISTA rocks !

Oops, When posting the question I've got an error saying " your message has
not been sent, please try again later". I've tried again later and now it
seems that I 've posted twice. Lucky I did not click 50 times on the post
tab. lol

Euh, back to the question now.

All the options for the sidebar are in the control panel.

Also, if you restart your computer the sidebar should come back.

Doubleclick the sidebar icon in the system tray.

Or press the Windows key, type side and click Windows Sidebar.

I also have the same problem with the sidebar.

After I installed the Vista Business edition on 5 computers, everything
worked fine including the sidebar and I can add gadgets.
But after a few restarts the sidebar stopped working and it did not give an
error and is not running in Task Manager.

If you try and restart the sidebar, nothing happens and no error comes up.
If you try and install a new gadget now it says "Unspecified Error" and
nothing happens afterwards.

Any advise?

I am having this same issue with the Ultimate edition. I have tried launching
the Sidebar in every way I can think of and it does not open. I have tried
under multiple logins. I also get no process showing up under task manager.
